Why did the Local Blend spend a week in the Minnesota Street Market?
A renovation project lasting from Jan. 2-8 required the Local Blend to close its doors. Employees worked to deep-clean and repaint everything.
Now the building has new flooring behind the bar, new flooring in the bathroom, fresh paint on the walls, a cool electric fireplace to replace the old, an updated kitchen and new merchandise shelves.
